2012-07-19GFS2: Reduce file fragmentationBob Peterson
This patch reduces GFS2 file fragmentation by pre-reserving blocks. The resulting improved on disk layout greatly speeds up operations in cases which would have resulted in interlaced allocation of blocks previously. A typical example of this is 10 parallel dd processes, each writing to a file in a common dirctory. The implementation uses an rbtree of reservations attached to each resource group (and each inode).

2012-07-18GFS2: kernel panic with small gfs2 filesystems - 1 RGAbhijith Das
In the unlikely setup where there's only one resource group in the gfs2 filesystem, gfs2_rgrpd_get_next() returns a NULL rgd that is not dealt with properly, causing a kernel NULL ptr dereference. This patch fixes this issue. Signed-off-by: Abhi Das <adas@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-06-28GFS2: Fixing double brelse'ing bh allocated in gfs2_meta_read when EIO occursMasatake YAMATO
This patch fixes buffer_head double free in following code path: gfs2_block_map => gfs2_meta_inode_buffer => gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer => gfs2_meta_read => release_metapath gfs2_block_map calls gfs2_meta_inode_buffer with &mp.mp_bh[0] as an argument. mp.mp_bh are filled with zero at the beginning of gfs2_block_map. If gfs2_meta_inode_buffer returns non-zero value, gfs2_block_map calls release_metapath to free buffers chained to mp.mp_bh. release_metapath checks each slot of mp.mp_bh[i] and free(with brelse) unless the slot is filled with NULL. &mp.mp_bh[0] passed to gfs2_meta_inode_buffer is filled at gfs2_meta_read. gfs2_meta_read is filled a buffer allocated with gfs2_getbuf even if EIO occurs. When EIO occurs, the allocated buffer is brelse'ed though the pointer(wrong poiner) points the brelse'ed is passed back to caller via an argument bhp. gfs2_meta_indirect_buffer, the caller also pass the wrong pointer to its caller with EIO. Finally gfs2_block_map gets both EIO and &mp.mp_bh[0] filled with the wrong pointer. release_metapath calls brelse again on the wrong pointer.

2012-06-14GFS2: Combine functions get_local_rgrp and gfs2_inplace_reserveBob Peterson

2012-06-11seq_file: Add seq_vprintf function and export itSteven Whitehouse
The existing seq_printf function is rewritten in terms of the new seq_vprintf which is also exported to modules. This allows GFS2 (and potentially other seq_file users) to have a vprintf based interface and to avoid an extra copy into a temporary buffer in some cases.

2012-06-08GFS2: Use lvbs for storing rgrp information with mount optionBenjamin Marzinski
Instead of reading in the resource groups when gfs2 is checking for free space to allocate from, gfs2 can store the necessary infromation in the resource group's lvb. Also, instead of searching for unlinked inodes in every resource group that's checked for free space, gfs2 can store the number of unlinked but inodes in the lvb, and only check for unlinked inodes if it will find some. The first time a resource group is locked, the lvb must initialized. Since this involves counting the unlinked inodes in the resource group, this takes a little extra time. But after that, if the resource group is locked with GL_SKIP, the buffer head won't be read in unless it's actually needed. Enabling the resource groups lvbs is done via the rgrplvb mount option. If this option isn't set, the lvbs will still be set and updated, but they won't be verfied or used by the filesystem. To safely turn on this option, all of the nodes mounting the filesystem must be running code with this patch, and the filesystem must have been completely unmounted since they were updated.

2012-06-08GFS2: Cache last hash bucket for glock seq_filesSteven Whitehouse
For the glocks and glstats seq_files, which are exposed via debugfs we should cache the most recent hash bucket, along with the offset into that bucket. This allows us to restart from that point, rather than having to begin at the beginning each time. This is an idea from Eric Dumazet, however I've slightly extended it so that if the position from which we are due to start is at any point beyond the last cached point, we start from the last cached point, plus whatever is the appropriate offset. I don't really expect people to be lseeking around these files, but if they did so with only positive offsets, then we'd still get some of the benefit of using a cached offset. With my simple test of around 200k entries in the file, I'm seeing an approx 10x speed up. Cc: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
2012-06-07GFS2: Increase buffer size for glocks and glstats debugfs filesSteven Whitehouse
As per Al Viro's suggestion, this increases the buffer size used for these two files. This provides a speed up of slightly less than 8x (i.e. proportional to the buffer size) for cases when we have large numbers of glocks.

2012-06-06GFS2: Fix error handling when reading an invalid block from the journalSteven Whitehouse
When we read an invalid block from the journal, we should not call withdraw, but simply print a message and return an error. It is up to the caller to then handle that error. In the case of mount that means a failed mount, rather than a withdraw (requiring a reboot). In the case of recovering another nodes journal then we return an error via the uevent.

2012-06-06GFS2: Add "top dir" flag supportSteven Whitehouse
This patch adds support for the "top dir" flag. Currently this is unused but a subsequent patch is planned which will add support for the Orlov allocation policy when allocating subdirectories in a parent with this flag set. In order to ensure backward compatible behaviour, mkfs.gfs2 does not currently tag the root directory with this flag, it must always be set manually.

2012-06-06GFS2: Fold quota data into the reservations structBob Peterson

2012-06-06GFS2: Extend the life of the reservationsBob Peterson
This patch lengthens the lifespan of the reservations structure for inodes. Before, they were allocated and deallocated for every write operation. With this patch, they are allocated when the first write occurs, and deallocated when the last process closes the file. It's more efficient to do it this way because it saves GFS2 a lot of unnecessary allocates and frees. It also gives us more flexibility for the future: (1) we can now fold the qadata structure back into the structure and save those alloc/frees, (2) we can use this for multi-block reservations.

2012-06-04vfs: Fix /proc/<tid>/fdinfo/<fd> file handlingLinus Torvalds
Cyrill Gorcunov reports that I broke the fdinfo files with commit 30a08bf2d31d ("proc: move fd symlink i_mode calculations into tid_fd_revalidate()"), and he's quite right. The tid_fd_revalidate() function is not just used for the <tid>/fd symlinks, it's also used for the <tid>/fdinfo/<fd> files, and the permission model for those are different. So do the dynamic symlink permission handling just for symlinks, making the fdinfo files once more appear as the proper regular files they are. Of course, Al Viro argued (probably correctly) that we shouldn't do the symlink permission games at all, and make the symlinks always just be the normal 'lrwxrwxrwx'. That would have avoided this issue too, but since somebody noticed that the permissions had changed (which was the reason for that original commit 30a08bf2d31d in the first place), people do apparently use this feature. [ Basically, you can use the symlink permission data as a cheap "fdinfo" replacement, since you see whether the file is open for reading and/or writing by just looking at st_mode of the symlink. So the feature does make sense, even if the pain it has caused means we probably shouldn't have done it to begin with. ] Reported-and-tested-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
